Greater Moncton
(Information from the report Greater Moncton Urban Community The strength through collaboration)
The first European settlement in Acadia began in the mid-seventeenth century with the migration of Acadians from Port Royal, Nova Scotia. The Acadians were the first settlers of what is today known as the Greater Moncton area. Acadian pioneers established a village at the bend of the Petitcodiac River, naming it le Coude. In June 1755, the capture of Fort Beausjour by Lieutenant-Colonel Robert Monkton, after whom Moncton is named, triggered the expulsion of Acadians. Large numbers of Loyalists, repatriated Acadians, Irish and other immigrant groups reached the region over the following century, establishing a multi-cultural heritage which is still one of the areas largest assets. In 1855, the settlement known as le Coude was incorporated as the Town of Monckton. During the twentieth century, the City of Moncton expanded its boundaries and population through a series of annexations. Suburbs grew outside Monctons boundaries: on the north side of the Petitcodiac River, Dieppe, St-Anselme, Chartersville and Lakeburn which were later amalgamated to Dieppe; and on the south of the Petitcodiac River: Riverview Heights, Gunningsville et Bridgedale which later became the Town of Riverview. In 1946, Leger Corner adopted the name of Dieppe in honor of the Canadians soldiers who fought and died in Dieppe Raid of World War II. Riverview was incorporated as a town in 1973. The Greater Moncton Urban Community, as we know it, is the result of local government restructuring following the report of the Royal Commission on the Greater Moncton put into effect in 1973. The Greater Moncton Urban Community has overcome the repressive effects of the linguistic tensions of the 60s. The language question gradually ceased to be viewed as a problem to solve but rather as an important asset to develop and exploit for the benefit of all the residents in the area. The spirit of cooperation, ever present among the three urban communities of the Greater Moncton Urban Community since the municipal restructuring of 1973, was a solid foundation on which to build. Although these three independents municipalities held strongly to their separate identity and political independence, their political leaders developed a remarkable record of cooperation which is still ongoing today.

lEASE (Information from the Public Legal Education and Information Service of New Brunswick Website)
A lease is an agreement that regulates the relationship between landlord and tenant. In New Brunswick, the landlord and tenant must sign a prescribed form of lease, called the Standard Form of Lease. The lease sets out the rights and responsibilities of both the landlord and tenant. Even if the landlord and tenant did not sign a lease, the Residential Tenancies Act still regulates the relationship. A lease for a fixed term ends automatically at the end of the term. However, the landlord or tenant can end a tenancy by giving written notice of termination. The notice of termination must always be in writing. The time required for this notice differs according to the type of lease involved. For example, in a year-to-year tenancy, notice must be given at least three months before the anniversary date of the lease. If the tenancy is month-to-month, then one months notice is required. If the tenant moves without giving proper notice or assigning or subletting the tenancy, the tenant may be liable for the rent if the landlord cannot find a new tenant.

Private Insurance You can buy an additional insurance from a Private Insurance company covering what is not covered by the New Brunswick Health Insurance, including: A private insurance is also necessary for the first three months following your arrival in New Brunswick, because you are not covered by Medicare yet. Look in the Yellow pages of the phone book under Insurance Agents & Brokers to have the name of private insurance companies. Attention: Be sure to read carefully the modalities of the insurance contract to know the extent of the coverage before signing any document. Please see the documents Health and Immigration: A Guide for Newcomers and Health and Immigration: A Guide for Health Professionals to have a range of information on multiple aspects of the Health Care System in Greater Moncton. Integrating a new community, adapting to a new country and to a new culture is a challenge in itself. No matter the origin, familiarizing oneself to an unknown health care system can be a cause for worry or even anxiety. That is why, the staff at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont Regional Hospital, the Moncton Hospital, the Multicultural Association of the Greater Moncton Area (MAGMA) and various community stakeholders have joined forces to publish two guides on the subject. First, destined to newcomers is the booklet Health and Immigration: A Guide for Newcomers; it is written to help them better understand the South-East region and provincial health care system. The booklet describes the adaptation to a new culture, provides an overview of how the health care system works and explains the various procedures of health insurance in New Brunswick. This guide finally describes how to access a family doctor, how to access health care services at a hospital or in a community. Furthermore, the appendixes provide a list of additional information and resources. A second guide entitled Health and Immigration: A Guide for Health Professionals targets health care providers. Its aim is to increase peoples awareness to cultural differences newcomers bring to our region and the impact that these differences have on their practices. By being informed, the provider will be able to respond better to the required care, therefore better understanding the newcomers reactions to diseases in general. Furthermore, this guide will help increase the awareness of health care professionals to the adaptation process required when integrating a new culture. The guide is divided in four sections: adaptation phases that one must go through when arriving in a new country; some cultural elements that must be considered when a newcomer requires health care services; practices and beliefs based on some religions and nations; strategies that will facilitate communication between newcomer and health care professional; facts and case studies gathered following the hospitalization of some newcomers. These Health and Immigration guides are available from the different partners and sponsors of this project, on the following Website : www.beausejour-nb.ca or by calling 506-862-4225.

OVERVIEW (New BruNswick)

New Brunswick covers 73,440 square kilometres in roughly a rectangle shape about 242 kilometres (150 miles) from east to west and 322 kilometres (200 miles) north to south. New Brunswick, the largest of Canadas three Maritime Provinces, is located under Quebecs Gasp Peninsula and beside the State of Maine. Its northern border also includes the Restigouche River and the Baie des Chaleurs. The eastern boundary is entirely coastal - the Gulf of St Lawrence and Northumberland Strait - and dotted with warm, sandy beaches, featuring the warmest salt water north of Virginia. Chignecto Bay and the 24-kilometre wide Isthmus of Chignecto, which connects New Brunswick to Nova Scotia, form part of New Brunswicks southern border. The rest of it is the Bay of Fundy. Its tides - the highest and wildest in the world - have carved a spectacular coastline. New Brunswick is also connected to Prince Edward Island by the world-famous Confederation Bridge. An eastern seaside province, New Brunswick has beautiful sandy beaches in the summer, spectacular autumn foliage, wildflowers in the spring and pure, white snow in the winter. The province is marked by its rolling hills and spectacular valleys, as well as its historic and modern architecture located in many of its cities, towns and villages. New Brunswicks communities vary. There are eight major cities, Bathurst, Campbellton, Dieppe, Edmundston, the provincial capital of Fredericton, Miramichi, Moncton and Saint John.

Summers are typically warm and comfortable, but not too hot. Along the Bay of Fundy coast, average daytime highs vary between 20 and 22C in the summer, with higher temperatures as you move inland. Many pleasant but cooler days are experienced in spring and autumn.

ACADIA
(Information from the Acadian National Society Website)
Founded in 1604, Acadia is the first attempt to colonize the New World. De Monts, Champlain and Poutrincourt, with 80 French settlers, lead the expedition and the settlement of the colony at the Ile-Ste-Croix, and the following year, in Port Royal. They then began the great adventure of Acadia, whose story will be marked forever by the Grand Drangement of 1755. Deported in several Britannic colony of North America and hunted for eight hundreds years, it was only in 1763, that Acadia, practically destroyed, came back to life. In New Brunswick, Acadians settled especially along the coasts from Cap-Pel to Miscou and inland to St-Jacques, north-west of the province. In Nova Scotia, they take root in the Bay Ste-Marie and the Cape Breton, while in Prince Edward Island, they were originally found in the region of Evangeline, and in Newfoundland, on the west coast. The Memramcook College and the Universit Sainte-Anne, founded in the late 19th century, will give Acadia a breath of fresh air. At the same time, Acadia will enter an era of modernity, performing a crucial progress in education, social justice and language rights. Now, the Acadia of Atlantic Canada has over 300 000 Acadians proud of their origins. Interesting Website: www.cyberacadie.com
